Sold my Nexus S and already miss it...

Hi Guys,
Today I sold my Nexus S to my friend who develops an amazing new app.
They needed an ICS device that they can afford. After testing their app myself for a while, they convinced me to sell them the phone :crying:.
I don't know which new device I would buy (Gnex, S3 or One X), but I will definitely miss this amazing community of developers and people who are willing to help anytime.
Thanks and see you at your next phone forum...

I say buy a okish phone and wait for new phones to come out. They will me more up to date and can compete with next iphone

You don't think the one x or gs3 can compete?

I've used both, apply would have to basically fit a desktop pc into a phone to make the hox and gs3 irrelevant

They compete, but their the first phones of the "new generation" . Just wait till newer models come out in like the next couple months.

Anyone here waiting on the Nexus 7?

Wondering how many Note owners ordered this tablet.

I am still awaiting my email from Google :-( but am in Australia

You'll get it tomorrow ;-)

The nexus 7 is missing a stylus, has no 3g connectivity and is 7inches. So no its useless to me

Nope. I already own a 7" tablet.

Thought about it, and i think Nexus is amazing, but... it's just 2 inches more than my phone so i don't really need it.

I second that. I can't justify spending more money on mobile tech when mine seems to be a perfect balance (for me).
But I do still love using 10" tablets 7" just isn't big enough of a difference for me.

Still thinking about getting one, I'll need to have a play with one first though but as other others say its only 2 inches bigger and the note does it all !

Sold my 16GB on craigslist last week with a moko case for $220. Now I have a 32GB and love it. The 32GB appears to have a different screen, not the yellowish one my 16GB had.

I think the screen is the same.. perhaps your old N7 had a bad [yellow] screen? mine is not yellow [bought when N7 was released on google play]

I agree my last one was yellow. My original pre order from play was nice but kept freezing so I exchanged it. I was reading in a different forum that nexus changed screen manufacturers for the newer batches. I hate hear say so either way my new nexus looks better than either of my last two. I will just be thankful, the yellow was unbearable.

I think the time has come to upgrade from my Nexus 7 to something different. I love the 7 inch but think that maybe a 10 inches is in order. any suggestions on what I should get or should I wait and see you what is coming out shortly? NO iPADs

Nexus 10? Haven't tried it but it looks nice.

Nexus 5 Isn't Worth It

Honestly I don't think the Nexus 5 is worth giving up the Nexus 4 just yet unless you are in dire need of the 32gb space which I guess most of you are. I think I'll hold on to my Nexus 4 for one more year and then make the leap to the Nexus 6 or whatever they'll call it.
I think Google will support the N4 for at least one more year and if not we always have these lovely devs.
What are y'all thoughts? PLEASE NO TROLLING OR DISRESPECTFUL COMMENTS

I guess it depends on what features are most important to you but to me the next Nexus must blow this phone completely out of the water before I trade it in. I mean don't get me wrong but I would of definitely purchased the Nexus 5 if I didn't have the Nexus 4

Completely agree. As for the fragile thing you only hear from the complainers. You never hear from the happy people.
Look after your phone and you'll not have a problem. Never understood how phones end up in toilets is it really necessary.

I get that but I wouldn't say any large smartphone has any building site in mind. That's what those cases that are bulky and look way over protective for the everyday person are for

You do have a point but keep in mind some users may not have the money or may not even know where to get a case for the N4. Idk. I'm glad I don't fall under the "Nexus 4 is fragile" category. I love the design though.

If I were to guess I'd say the price tag might start at around $380 for the 16gb maybe even more. To me it just isn't worth it if you have a Nexus 4 already.

Not worth it for me ether. I've never been one for upgrading every single year I don't see the point in paying that much to do the same thing but slightly quicker.
I tend to upgrade every 2-3 years
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app

In my opinion, it will be the same price as the Nexus 4 was on release.. I don't think there is anything that looks like it is going to be more expensive than the components were when the Nexus4 came out. If it is cheap enough, I would be happy to upgrade once a year, sell the old phone and be only a little bit out of pocket

I think the key indicators of it being slightly more expensive than the N4 is the 4.9 inch screen, 1080p slightly larger battery and pressure sensor (whatever that is). I could be wrong but I'm willing to bet it will be slightly more.

To me there's not much of a major update to the successor (Nexus 5) for me to dish out more money.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app

It depends on what you use your phone for on weather it will be an upgrade.
For instance I use my phone quite often for playing my old psx games so the extra storage is a godsend.
Also I prefer to play them using opengl graphics as they look so much better however currently opengl only runs single threaded so it can be quite laggy.
If the nexus 5 does include the rumoured 2.3ghz s800 then it would provide a massive improvement to the framerates and would be a great upgrade for me
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app

My solution is really easy for this problems. Since Google doesn't sell devices here through the Play Store, I fall under the pricing of LG, which will be ridiculously high as always, so even if I wanted to purchase this phone, I couldn't for an affordable price. :laugh:
I'm glad they are keeping a leash on my finances.

I love my Nexus 4 and I complain about its fragility all the time. It's the first phone I've owned that I have had to put a bumper or a case on. I don't know any other phone that can literally slide off a table with a slight slope.
